Apple loves managing as many aspects of its devices as possible – it regularly claims that its control of both hardware and software allows it to do things that its rivals can’t – and it looks like that could extend even further in 2025. According to a new report, future Apple devices will feature even more components designed and made by the company.
That’s what’s outlined in a new report from DigiTimes, in any case. There, the outlet contends that the iPhone SE 4 will come with an Apple-made 5G modem in the first half of 2025 (although the mmWave aspect of the chip will still be made by Qualcomm, DigiTimes believes). After that, “select models” in the iPhone 17 series will potentially follow suit later in the year.
